Digital Site Safety Measurement

Site safety measurement is an observational method designed to improve safety on construction sites. Developed in collaboration with authorities, construction companies, and the Finnish Institute of Occupational Health, this method provides an efficient and standardized way to monitor the safety level of a construction site. The site safety meter can replace the statutory weekly maintenance inspections, making it a valuable tool for both site management and contractors.

The areas observed with the site safety meter include:

• Scaffolds, walkways, and ladders
• Machinery and tools
• Fall protection
• Work practices
• Electrical systems and lighting
• Site organization
• Dust levels

The site safety meter assesses the safety of the site in various areas, including the condition of scaffolds, walkways, and ladders, the safety of machinery and tools, the adequacy of fall protection, work practices, electrical systems, site organization, and dust levels. Regularly reviewing these aspects helps identify potential risks early and ensures that occupational safety is continually managed.

Electronic Site Safety Measurement

The electronic site safety measurement performed with the Nopsa Pro mobile app is conveniently carried out on a mobile device (tablet or smartphone). The inspector marks the measurement targets as “correct” or “incorrect” on their mobile device. If an issue is marked as incorrect, a photo can be taken of the problem, and the responsible contractor can be noted for follow-up. Once the inspection is complete, the contractors will receive an email regarding the items that need correction. The app calculates the site safety measurement level, which can be checked in the system. Site management can also track the progress of corrective actions, and a feedback report can be printed from the system to monitor the site’s safety level.

• Speeds up measurement, saving time
• Eliminates paper and manual record-keeping
• Data from measurements is available in real-time
• Clear reports can be printed from the system
• Easy to assign responsibility for corrective actions
• Real-time information on contractors’ corrections

The app automates many processes: it calculates the site safety measurement level in real-time and sends email notifications about necessary corrections directly to the responsible parties. This ensures that site management always has up-to-date information about the safety situation and required actions. Additionally, clear reports and feedback boards can be printed from the system to help track the development of the site’s safety level.
